crossfit

impinsul culcat nu este tocmai sport pentru cineva anchilozat de stat pe scaun 12 ore pe zi

am devenit tot mai interesat de exercitii care sa contracareze sedentarismul asta excesiv si sa ma faca sa ma simt in forma

crossfit este un concept foarte interesant. aici gasiti cateva exercitii

cateva mituri facute praf

- e nevoie sa manci de 5-6 ori pe zi ca sa accelerezi metabolismul

- daca nu mananci din 3 in 3 ore sigur o sa te catabolizezi

- pentru un abdomen definit sunt necesare sute de abdomene

- pentru slabire trebuie sa eviti carbohidratii

- daca eviti carbohidratii poti sa mananci oricat ca slabesti

- fara suplimente nu se poate sa pui muschi sau sa slabesti

- ca sa arati bine trebuie sa stai 3 ore pe zi la sala

- cardio este necesar pentru slabire

- mancarea organica este net superioara celei normale

- alcoolul este nesanatos

- nu poti sa pui muschi fara sa pui si grasime

- mancarea negatita este mai sanatoasa

- colesterolul mare e nenorocire

- painea ingrasa

- laptele e doar pentru vitei

- muschii ard o gramada de calorii in plus

- mancat corect inseamna proteine+ carbohidrati sau proteine+ grasimi

- lactatele trebuie evitate intr-un regim de slabire

for the low carb fanatics - de pe un forum

Like most low carb fanatics who are ignorant of all but the most pop-physiology, you’re incorrect to think that fat balance is all about insulin. You need to understand that there are a multitude of enzymes that are involved in triacylglycerol synthesis and lipolysis. “Insulin” is not a pathway. It’s one of several hormones that have an effect on the enzymes that comprise the actual pathways. What enzymes am I talking about? For fatty acid uptake, there’s FAT/CD36, FATP-1 to -6, and FABPpm. For fatty acid synthesis, there’s fatty acid synthase. For glucose uptake, there’s Glut1 and Glut4. For esterfication, there’s GPAT, PAP1, and DGAT1 and DGAT2. For lipolysis, there’s HSL, perilipin, and Protein kinase A. What “regulates all this?” It’s definitely not just “insulin”. That’s an incredibly simplistic, insulinocentric view. You know what else has an effect on these lipogenic/lipolytic enzymes besides insulin? There’s angiotensin II, the adrenergic receptor (catacholamines), FoxC2, PTP1B, and last but not least ASP. ASP stimulates triacylglycerol synthesis more than any other known adipose tissue factor. It’s also a potent stimulator of glucose transport [PMID: 9130021]. It works independently of insulin, through a different signaling pathway. It effectively synthesizes triacylglycerol even in the absence of glucose and insulin [PMID: 8492712]. Finally, guess what the primary regulator of ASP production is? Dietary fat (packaged as chylomicrons) [PMID: 9694837]. Fat intake and ASP will lead to a positive fat balance just as much as carb intake and insulin will. Which is why it’s all about calories. Unfortunately, low carb nuts never look past insulin. They ignore (or are ignorant of) the fact that fat stores itself with tremendous efficiency without any insulin whatsoever. Take a look at the broader picture. Fatty acids are taken up into adipocytes via facilitated diffusion, mediated by fatty acid transporters like the ones I mentioned above. You don’t need insulin for this. Dietary FFAs will diffuse into adipocytes down the concentration gradient. There may even be passive diffusion. You then need a triacylglycerol backbone and the acylation (esterfication) steps that lead to the production of a triacylglycerol. ASP can stimulate both. After all, it’s called “acylation-stimulating protein.” This process works just fine with basal levels of insulin or glucose. And as explained before, ASP is produced in response to FAT INTAKE. Weight loss is all about negative calorie balance, not lowering of insulin. Research clearly shows that when isonitrogenous diets are compared, higher carb diets (with higher insulin levels) do JUST AS WELL as lower carb diets at reducing bodyfat. While low carb diets have lower insulin levels, they have higher ASP levels. And vice versa with a low fat diet. Why? Because carb intake (or type) and insulin levels are absolutely unable to account for fat loss. It’s all about energy balance.

cardio

mult hulitul cardio e numit aiurea, neexistand se pare nici un beneficiu cardiovascular

cardio se traduce prin orice fel de miscare al carei scop este arderea de calorii. ca nu le mananci/bei sau le arzi facand cardio e acelasi lucru

in ultimul timp am facut cardio cam de 3-4 ori pe saptamana. din moment ce scopul este sa ard niste calorii, nu mi-am propus sa ating un numar de minute ci un numar de calorii, conform estimarii aparatului (chiar daca estimarea este in general prea optimista)

400 de calorii este un antrenament ok. prefer sa le ard mai repede si mai intens...ieri a durat cam 28 de minute pe o bicicleta eliptica. probabil ca daca alerg ard 400 de calorii in mai putin de 20 de minute

pulsul nu este un indicator foarte bun al intensitatii exercitiului. la persoanele neantrenate pulsul creste foarte tare chiar daca exercitiul nu este foarte dificil. oricum, un puls peste 120 este de preferat

berea e sanatoasa

in cantitate moderata, binenteles

Melatonin present in beer contributes to increase the levels of melatonin and antioxidant capacity of the human serum.
Maldonado MD, Moreno H, Calvo JR.

Department Medical Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Seville Medical School, Avda. Sánchez Pizjuán 4, 41009 Seville, Spain.

BACKGROUND & AIM: Melatonin is a molecule with antioxidative properties including direct free radical scavenging and indirect stimulatory actions on a variety of antioxidative enzymes which further promote its ability to reduce the toxicity of radicals and their associated reactants. Beer is an integral element of the diet of numerous people and is rich in antioxidants. We analyzed if melatonin is present in beer and if so, at what concentration. It further determines whether the moderate consumption of beer has an effect on the total antioxidant status (TAS) of human serum. METHODS: We analyzed 18 brands of beer with different percentage of alcohol content in order to determine the concentration of melatonin. Serum samples were collected from 7 healthy volunteers. These samples were used to measure melatonin and TAS on basal conditions and after drinking beer. RESULTS: Showed that all the beer analyzed did indeed contain melatonin and the more they have got, the greater was its degree of alcohol. Both melatonin and TAS in human serum increased after drinking beer. CONCLUSIONS: Melatonin present in the beer does contribute to the total antioxidative capability of human serum and moderate beer consumption can protect organism from overall oxidative stress.

orthorexia nervosa

reprezinta obsesia de a manca doar alimente considerate sanatoase, "curate"

cu alte cuvinte, o boala psihica. nu exista alimente "curate" si alimente "murdare". lucrurile sunt mai complexe :-)

"Orthorexia begins, innocently enough, as a desire to overcome chronic illness or to improve general health. But because it requires considerable willpower to adopt a diet that differs radically from the food habits of childhood and the surrounding culture, few accomplish the change gracefully. Most must resort to an iron self-discipline bolstered by a hefty dose of superiority over those who eat junk food. Over time, what to eat, how much, and the consequences of dietary indiscretion come to occupy a greater and greater proportion of the orthorexic's day.

The act of eating pure food begins to carry pseudospiritual connotations. As orthorexia progresses, a day filled with sprouts, umeboshi plums, and amaranth biscuits comes to feel as holy as one spent serving the poor and homeless. When an orthorexic slips up (which may involve anything from devouring a single raisin to consuming a gallon of Haagen Dazs ice cream and a large pizza), he experiences a fall from grace and must perform numerous acts of penitence. These usually involve ever-stricter diets and fasts.

This "kitchen spirituality" eventually reaches a point where the sufferer spends most of his time planning, purchasing, and eating meals. The orthorexic's inner life becomes dominated by efforts to resist temptation, self-condemnation for lapses, self-praise for success at complying with the chosen regime, and feelings of superiority over others less pure in their dietary habits.

This transference of all of life's value into the act of eating makes orthorexia a true disorder. In this essential characteristic, orthorexia bears many similarities to the two well-known eating disorders anorexia and bulimia. Where the bulimic and anorexic focus on the quantity of food, the orthorexic fixates on its quality. All three give food an excessive place in the scheme of life."

ca sa combat boala asta, de care am suferit si eu o buna perioada (ani de zile...un exemplu de cretinism maxim: asta vara am fost in Italia si nu am mancat inghetata), azi la pranz am mancat o prajitura de la chocolat :-)

bine, pana maine dimineata nu mai mananc nimic, dar nu pentru ca ma simt vinovat sau ceva de genul asta...pur si simplu vreau sa mai slabesc un pic si asta fara deficit caloric nu se poate

experimentele continua...

in ultimele 24 de ore n-am mancat nimic

a fost excelent. nu mi-a fost foame absolut deloc. am facut doua antrenamente foarte bune. m-am simtit grozav, probabil de la secretia de catecolamine

am de gand sa fac asta de 1-2 ori pe saptamana de acum incolo
